Description

A RARE ROCKER FROM THE ELUSIVE BIG T TYLER ON THE UK BLUE VOGUE LABEL

 

KING KONG

b/w  SADIE GREEN

 

Big "T" Tyler made only one record, but what a record. "King Kong"/ "Sadie Green" must rank of one of the great double-siders of 1950s rock 'n' roll. Unfortunately, biographical information on the man is almost non-existent. His real name is Chris Tyler and according to Stuart Colman, he was a blues singer from Tyler, Texas. Rob Finnis calls him a gospel shouter and tells us that Tyler was signed to a management deal by L.A. songwriter Norman Malkin (the husband of Margie Rayburn) in May 1957. Apparently it was Malkin who came up with the moniker Big T Tyler, to complement his 15-stone physique. Both "King Kong" and "Sadie Green" were written by Tyler himself and recorded on April 25, 1957, at Master Recorders on Fairfax Avenue in Hollywood, California. An all-star cast had been assembled to provide the accompaniment, including Rene Hall on guitar, Earl Palmer on drums, Plas Johnson on tenor sax and his brother Ray Johnson on piano.
